Hi Christie, welcome to planDisney!
The Event Guide for
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is now available in the
My Disney Experience mobile app (scroll down on the app's home page --> "View Event Guide"). The Insider Guides for Families with Little Ones and Night Owls offer top tips at your fingertips. My best tip for maximizing the magic on your party night is to enter Magic Kingdom Park at 4:00 p.m. The official party begins at 7:00 p.m., which means you'll have three extra hours to take advantage of pre-dark photo ops and experience attractions that will not be open during the party like Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress and Enchanted Tales with Belle.
I'm so glad you're considering purchasing
Memory Maker for your trip. Memory Maker is my favorite Disney souvenir because it includes unlimited downloads of all attraction photos and images captured by
Disney PhotoPass photographers. Here's how it works. Once you purchase Memory Maker, an entitlement sits in your My Disney Experience account until it's activated. Once you activate the entitlement, it remains active for 30 days. If you activate your Memory Maker entitlement during Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, Christie, it will remain active for all park days within 30 days of activation. Isn't that great?!
To activate Memory Maker, click on any watermarked Disney PhotoPass image in your
My Disney Experience mobile app (three small lines at the bottom right of the app's home page --> Photos). Click the "Activate My Photos" button followed by the green "Activate" button. The watermarks on all of your Disney PhotoPass images will automagically disappear and clicking on a photo will give you the option to edit, save, or share it.
One Memory Maker purchase includes images of up to 25 members of your
Family & Friends list, just know that unwatermarked images can only be viewed by the person to whom the Memory Maker entitlement is linked. Another thing to keep in mind is that Disney PhotoPass images expire 45 days after they are taken. I most often download single images throughout my vacation for social media posts but find it easiest to download all of my Disney PhotoPass images at once on my laptop after my vacation.
There are some spooktacular shots that are only available during Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, Christie. The Event Guide Map will show where to find photo spots with Magic Shots and Halloween props. Last year, my friends and I stepped into an interactive photo frame with the headless horseman. We also stopped by
Town Square Theater to strike a pose with Mickey in his Halloween finest.
Enjoy capturing boo-tiful memories during your visit, Christie. Please return to planDisney with any other trip-planning questions.
Choose magic,
Jennifer
